A friend of mine uses a laser printer to print the circuit board
layout on a thin paper that he then use between the actual circuit
board and the uv-lamp. I can enquire him if you want. His last project
was a robot frontend or something (for an engeneering-school, so the
students there had something to interface on when making control-
circuitry). Funny thing is that this was for the third year, while he
is still in the first :p

Cheers, Stig
